Installing the print server

for HP Jetdirect 175x external print server/Internet connector for USB

and HP Jetdirect 310x external print server/Internet connector for

USB

Overview

1. Install hardware

Summary: To connect the printer to the network using

the 175x or 310x print server, you will:

connect the print server to the network with a

network cable,

●

connect the print server to the printer with the

included USB cable,

●

plug in the power adapter, and●

print a configuration (self-test) page.●

Here are the detailed instructions.

2. Install software

For the basic procedure to set up each Windows (95, 98,

2000, XP, ME, NT 4.0) computer for printing on the networked

printer:

This default procedure involves installing printer drivers and

other software and configuring network parameters. You will

use the installation software on either the CD-ROM supplied

with your printer or on the Jetdirect CD-ROM supplied with

your print server, depending on your printer model.

Here are the instructions.

●

For the LPR/LPD (Line Printer Daemon) alternative printing

method...

●

For Macintosh setup (MacOS 8.6 or later), read the Jetdirect

CD-ROM on a Macintosh system, select the file Network

Printing.htm, and follow the instructions for setting up network

printing.

●

Steps to install the print server

hardware

Attach the print server to a 10Base-T (Ethernet) or 100Base-TX

(Fast Ethernet) local area network by plugging a network cable

into the RJ-45 connector on the rear end of the print server.

Attach the print server to the printer by plugging the Universal

Serial Bus (USB) cable—shipped with the print server—into

the USB connector on the front end of the print server and into

the USB connector on the printer.

Caution! Unsupported USB Devices:

HP 4135A Jetdirect Connectivity Card

■

any USB hub■

❍

any USB-to-parallel converter■

any USB cable extender■

Plug the DC power cord from the power module—shipped with

the print server—into the power connector on the rear end of

the print server . Plug the power module into a power outlet.

Caution! Do not use the power module shipped

with your print server with any other products!

❍

Verify the print server’s LEDs:

The 10 or 100 LED on the rear end of the print server

lights green to indicate the connection speed.

❍

The power/status LED on the top front begins

blinking and within 15 seconds is solid green, to indicate

the server passed its self test.

❍

A solid green USB LED on the top front indicates a

good USB-II connection, as illustrated above.

❍

If your LEDs are not solid green, see interpreting the LEDs and

diagnosing problems

Verify the connection with the printer by printing a

configuration (test) page:

Briefly press and release the test button on the rear end of

the print server. The page should soon emerge from the

attached printer.

Interpreting the configuration page and diagnosing problems

If the page does not appear on the printer, or if it is unreadable,

go to this Troubleshooting page, and then return to this User’s

Guide to continue with the installation.

You can use the clip attached to the bottom of the print server

to mount it to the printer or to a table or wall. Use either the

supplied sticky tape or the mounting screw holes. Or you can

pull off the clip.

Next, install software.

Configuring and managing the print

server on your network

for HP Jetdirect 175x external print server/Internet connector for USB

and HP Jetdirect 310x external print server/Internet connector for USB

This section describes the tools you can use to configure and manage your

print server, as well as the settings you can apply for various protocols.

Use this page to link to topics of interest.

Easiest basic configuration

Set up each Macintosh running MacOS (8.6 or later). Read the

Jetdirect CD-ROM on a Macintosh system, select the file Network

Printing.htm, and follow the instructions for setting up network

printing.

●

Set up each Windows computer for printing on the networked

printer by using the HP Install Network Printer Wizard.

This basic procedure involves installing printer drivers and other

software, configuring network parameters, and setting up the print

path. You will use the installation software on either the CD-ROM

supplied with your printer or on the HP Jetdirect CD-ROM supplied

with your print server, depending on your printer model. This is

explained in the software instructions on your Quick Start Guide

poster—supplied with your print server—or see

http://www.hp.com/support/network-printer-CD.

To use the wizard to install the networked printer on this computer,

return to the initial screen for this CD, select the [Install] button,

and follow the instructions there. Help is included. When finished

there, this computer is ready to use the printer.

After using the wizard, you can use the additional tools listed below

to make configuration changes and additions and to monitor the

printer.

Note: Making network address changes might break the print path

set up by the wizard.

To move a networked printer configured with an IP address, see

Tools for changing configuration and for

managing

Software tools summary:describes a variety of software tools that you

can use to install, configure, and manage a network printer. These tools

cover a variety of functions in a variety of operating environments. In

general, they allow you to set parameters for the various protocols listed

below...

Embedded web server:describes the web server contained within the

print server. You can use this tool to configure and manage the print

server.

HP Web Jetadmin: used to install, configure, and/or monitor the

networked printer, this software is available at

http://www.hp.com/support/net_printing.

Security for configuration:describes the security offered by the various

ways of configuring and managing the print server.

Protocols

The following protocols, and protocol-specific configurations and tools,

are supported by the print server.

TCP/IP:includes an overview of TCP/IP, as well as information

on these methods of applying TCP/IP parameters to the print server:

DHCP: a tool for autoconfiguration

❍ BOOTP: a tool for autoconfiguration❍ TFTP: a tool for extended autoconfiguration❍ RARP: a tool on some systems for configuring an IP address❍ Telnet: a tool for configuration and monitoring the print

server

Default configuration

for HP Jetdirect 175x external print server/Internet connector for USB

and HP Jetdirect 310x external print server/Internet connector for

USB

Fresh from the factory, before any configuration is changed by a user,

the print server has a default configuration for TCP/IP and for IPX

peer-to-peer printing (called IPX direct mode). When power is applied

in this factory-default state:

TCP/IP: The print server sends out several BOOTP requests

and one RARP request. If there is no reply, the print server

sends out several DHCP requests. If there is no reply, then the

print server uses the default IP address of 192.0.0.192 to appear

on the network ready for manual configuration by a user (using

the Install Network Printer wizard or any of the other

configuration methods).

●

IPX: The print server tries to determine and use the IPX

network number. It is then ready for further configuration by a

user (using the Install Network Printer wizard or any of the

other configuration methods).

●

When power is cycled thereafter, the configuration remains as set

previously.

For IPX, the network number is reassigned automatically.

●

For TCP/IP, one of the following applies:

If a BOOTP reply set the print server’s IP configuration

previously, BOOTP replies continue to be sent when

power is cycled. If no reply is received, factory default

sequence continues, as described above.

❍

If a DHCP reply set the print server’s IP configuration

previously, DHCP requests continue to be sent

indefinitely.

❍

If any configuration changes were made manually by a

user, then this manual configuration continues to be used.

❍

If none of the above have been set, the factory default

sequence is used, as described above.
